Chapter 234
Al the villa, Kirk had already heard from Jack that Caroline had seen the proposal surprise at the restaurant.
“You’re home?” He stepped forward to hug Caroline.
“Are you hungry?”
Caroline smiled. “I’m not hungry. Guess what I saw today?”
Kirk played along and thought about it for a moment. “HmI can’t guess.”
Caroline look out her phone and held it out to Kirk. “I saw the restaurant you decorated for the proposal! It’s so beautiful!”
Kirk smiled as well. He kissed Caroline’s eyelids. “Did you like it?”
“I did. But,” Caroline seemed regretful as she spoke, “I would have liked it even more if those roses were still in bloom.”
“If you’d like that, then I could Kirk paused. “Discuss with the boss about switching out the roses.”
“There’s no need.” Caroline allowed Kirk to hold her as they sat on the couch. She reached out to circle her arms around Kirk’s neck.
She said seriously, “You said something to me this morning before going out. You said you’d give me a gift. Did you mean that?”
Kirk caressed Caroline’s hair. “Of course. I always mean what I say to you.”
Caroline looked deeply into Kirk’s eyes. “Then Let’s go get some wedding pictures taken!”
After saying that, her face visibly reddened. Even so, she didn’t turn her gaze away and continued to look unblinkingly at Kirk.
Kirk was frozen for a moment.
Caroline pulled the corner of Kirk’s shirt anxiously. “If you don’t want to
“Darling.”
Kirk’s smile spread wider. He brushed his nose across Caroline’s as his hand reached under her top to caress her back. “I want nothing
more.”
As he spoke, the tip of his nose traveled across Caroline’s face to her reddened ear. “Babe, what should I do? I want you now.”
Caroline pressed her hand on Kirk’s chest, her face burning. “Be serious! I’m discussing something serious with you!”
“The discussion has already been settled.”
Kirk picked Caroline up and moved toward the second floor. “Now it’s time to discuss the next item on the agenda!”
Caroline was speechless.
After 8 pm, Caroline went downstairs, starving. When she pa**ed the kitchen, she heard a siren blaring outside.
Opening the door, she saw a police car rush past. It seemed to be driving toward Zone 2.
Sarah and Dan lived in Zone 2.
“Watching the show?” Kirk asked lazily from upstairs, his voice seductive.
Caroline looked up to see Kirk’s abs, and her face flushed.
Knowing how insatiable Kirk was, Caroline got worried that he would want to keep the ball rolling. She quickly nodded and said, “Yes.”
“Come to the third floor?”
“I’m hungry.”
“How about I cook for you, and you can take a look on your own?”
“Sure,” Caroline said before heading to the third floor. As expected, she saw the police parked at the door of the Evans‘ residence. The police said something to them and left.

Although everything seemed calm over at the Evans‘ residence, there was a storm brewing.
Dan was so enraged that he swept his hand across the table, throwing a cup to the ground. It smashed into pieces.
“Look what’s happening now! They can’t even find her. It looks like we’ll be stuck on this sinking ship together!”
Sarah was trembling, but she still managed to defend herself.
She said, “How was I supposed to know that the police wouldn’t help us even after we showed them Caroline’s identification documents?”
“I warned you long before. Don’t listen to that…”
*Uncle Dan!”
Layla walked in, pushing open the door that had been ajar.
When Dan saw Layla, his expression immediately turned icy. “What do you think you’re doing, still coming here?” he asked.
The smile on Layla’s face didn’t falter the slightest bit. “I already know about what happened with the company. I’m here to help you.”
Sarah’s eyes shone at that.

In contrast. Dan gave a loud, cold hull. Help us? Don’t you think you’ve thrown us in enough hot water!”

Layla replied. “Uncle Dan. Aunt Sarah, I know what you’re wonted about You’ve taken pulle years. So you’re worried that the new CEO
money loom Evans Group over the it. Once the boar other members find out about this, they won’t let you off
Sarah’s and Dan’s expressions shifted.
“You”
Layla only smiled lightly. “Don’t worry, I won’t tell people about this, I’m on your side.”
“What’s the point of having you on our side?” Dan scoffed.
“Of course there’s a point. Because I’ll definitely be the next CEOF
Sarah and Dan exchanged glances with each other.
“Uncle Dan, Aunt Sarah, it someone else ends up in that position, they will definitely expose what you have been doing. But I won’t. Because I need your help.”
“Our help?”
“That’s right! You know my situation with Eddy the best. Although Eddy wants to marry me, Mr. Morrison Senior is still around. Thus, we have to be quiet about it. If I told the other shareholders about it, they would never trust me. But you’re different. T
“Your positions and viewpoints are different. They would definitely trust you. When the time comes, I can use this to get the CEO position
with ease. Then, you won’t have to be afraid of getting investigated!”
Sarah and Dan looked toward Layla as if she were their savior.
Layla smiled. “That’s why you have to help me!”
Sarah and Dan thought about it for a second before nodding in agreement. This was the best choice for them right now.
Seeing this, Layla’s smile widened further.
On the other hand, Caroline was walking downstairs. When she got to the first floor, she smelled the fragrance of food.
“You’re done cooking?”
“Yes.” Kirk placed the dishes on the table. “Come eat.”
When Caroline saw the decadent dishes on the table, she praised him without holding back. “Your cooking skills are getting better.”
Kirk went over to hold Caroline in an embrace. He picked up a fork and started feeding her. “What about my other skills?”
Caroline ignored him.
Kirk put his chin on her shoulder and chuckled lowly. “I was talking about my driving skills. What were you thinking? Your face is red.”
Caroline shot him a look. “I’m hot!”
As she spoke, her stomach made a noise in protest.
Seeing that Caroline was really hungry, Kirk stopped teasing her. He fed Caroline like he was feeding a child.
Caroline was overjoyed.
Right then, her phone rang. Caroline glanced at it and said, “It’s Grandpa.”
Kirk frowned. “Don’t answer it just yet. Call back after you finish eating.”
“No way. What if it’s an emergency?” As Caroline sald this, she moved out of Kirk’s hold. She stepped on the soft carpet and headed to the
living room.
Smiling softly, Kirk watched Caroline leave.

There was an immediate response. “Ah, Carrie, I heard about what happened online. How are you? Are you abright
Caroline replied. “I’m fine. Thank you for the concern, Grandpa”
“Your parents have gone too far. How could they slander you online? I know you and how strong–willed you are. But no maller what yourie their daughter. How about this? I’ll take you to soak in some hot springs tomorrow night. You can relax. How about that?”
Caroline glanced at Kirk before saying, “Sure.”
They chatted for a bit more before Caroline hung up.
Before Kirk could say anything, she said, “Grandpa wants to take me to some hot sprints.”
Kirk grinned, but the smile didn’t reach his eyes. “Alright.”
Chapter 236
Caroline could distinctly feel Kirk’s displeasure. She guessed that he really disliked the fact that she still had ties with Eddy.
Thus, she explained patiently, “Grandpa has always been good to me. I can’t reject his Invitation.”
Kirk smiled as he brushed Caroline’s hair aside. “I’m not mad. It’s just that Mr. Morrison Senior still cares so much about you, even though we’re already married. Don’t you find it strange?”
Caroline was silent for a moment before sighing.
“Actually, I’ve always wondered about It. Grandpa treats me with the kind of unconditional love that goes beyond being related by blood. Maybe I look like some relative of his who died young. Do you think it’s possible he’s so nice to me because of that?”
Perhaps Jude’s love for Caroline stemmed from that?
Kirk smiled slightly. He had no desire to look into Jude and the rest of the older generation’s affairs. But if Jude stepped too far…
“Maybe. You could ask him about it tomorrow night.”
“Alright.” Caroline sat opposite Eddy.
Caroline replied, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It has nothing to do with me, and I can’t judge.”
‘I forced you? Did I make you take care of her? Or did I force you to get together with her? I cared for you for eight years, but I still don’t :now when you two got together.
le man smiled. “You know who I am, right?”
Even so, the brilliant smile on his face remained flawless. “I just got here. We should meet up sometime.”
“I heard that Caroline’s married, but not to you.”
Eddy was afraid that Jude would stop helping him get together with Caroline.
Aduan had also seen the words “Private Investigator.” Thus, he nodded and moved away.
Adrian came forward. He looked hesitant but brought it up anyway. “Do you need help?”
Caroline looked up at him. “No. I’m just investigating someone. Maybe I should just find another agency.”
Caroline was silent for a moment before saying, “Would it be too much trouble?”
Al this, Caroline laughed and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble you with it.”
